There are a couple of things that are clear about sump pumps in Massachusetts, there are a lot of different styles and if you need one you need one that works for your situation. Beyond those two factors, everything else about sump pumps can be murky. If you have ever walked into a big box store looking for a sump pump and had to go a couple of rounds with a salesperson to try to get answers you know exactly what it is like to attempt installing a sump pump as a DIY weekend project. DIY is a great way to save money on a list of things around the house but DIY and sump pumps just do not mesh well.
